Cardcaptor Sakura: Clear Card Hen – 06

「さくらとうさぎと月の唄」 (Sakura to Usagi to Tsuki no Uta)
“Sakura and The Rabbit and The Moon’s Song”

Another episode, another new card.

General Impressions

For anyone expecting a huge revelation or something big based on last week’s preview, you will once again be sorely disappointed. That said, this episode felt pretty good overall and as I’ve said before, I’m always down for more Kero-chan!

However, if I were to put on my conspiracy hat, Akiho and her stuffed animal Momo feel so damn suspicious that I’d probably go crazy if I didn’t try to talk about it. So besides all the red flags that were going off when Akiho was first introduced as a transfer student that started late, how can you not suspect her of being something more than just a soft-spoken side character after this week? Not only are the parallels to Sakura are so striking that it’s almost like the show is trying to slap us with a large trout, but with the way she was blushing at Syaoran just felt too damn suspicious. If I’m being frank with you, I wouldn’t be the least bit surprised if and when the show decides to reveal the secret (if there actually is one). Oh, and did I mention that while Sakura is making the assumption that Akiho’s “special person” might be a lover, I think it’s pretty clear that it might be someone who can use magic and possibly someone who we should be wary of.

Whew, with that out of the way let me throw my conspiracy hat back onto the coat rack and talk about some of the fun points of this week’s episode. Besides a rather short capture scene that Tomoyo once again missed, it’s nice to see Syaoran (sort of) finally join in on the action. And while it’d be nice to see him dawn his trademark green, white, and yellow outfit, I doubt we’ll be seeing much from him until we get deeper into whatever is going on with these Clear Cards. On Kero-chan’s side of things it was a little surprising to see him shift into his true form. For viewers new to the series, I’m sure you weren’t expecting someone as adorable as Kero-chan to look like something from He-Man, right?

Anyways, let’s all look forward to next week’s episode where we’ll hopefully get to see at least a fun card capture with so many cameras floating around. See you guys then!

Meiling chan!!!! Kero and Mei chan great duo!!! I want a great big brothera and fun one, as Touya is in this season. I always like him, but he seems less tense than he was in Sakura cardcaptor. Even the traces of his design soften more, and I thought he seemns more beautifull now. Lucky Yuki!

Nothing, really. It’s the same as calling your dad otô-san, your mom okaa-san or your brother onii-san, you still use the suffix san and is the most common way to adress your sibilings.

In manga and anime is less common see parents using the san on their sons but it falls in the same way of how feelings and relationships are portrayed, it’s not faithful to reality. Usually I the parents who use san on their children are often depicted as flawless ladies or gentlemen. Touma’s mother in Index can be an example of that.
